Screen flickering after iOS 6.1 update and some apps crashing frequently on my iPhone 4 .. I didn't have this in 6.0.1 back when people complained about it

hello, I had no keyboard flickering issues back when my iPhone 4 was on iOS 6.0.1 then I updated to 6.1 yesterday and now I have apps crashing frequently and keyboard flickering? anyone else having the same issue after the update? any known solution?

I'm having the same issue on my iPhone 4 since yesterday when I updated to iOS 6.1 from 5.1.1.
After about an hour after the upgrade, it crashed/rebooted itself and went completely white/grey screen with a brighter white line in the middle. My power/sleep button was broke already, so I couldn't do anything on it. I left it to drain the battery for about 6 hours. During that time, the edges around the white/grey screen became darker and darker like burn-in effect. After it ran out of the battery, I connected the phone to the PC through USB and iTunes let me restore it to iOS 6.1 firmware I downloaded before.
The restore was successful, but the entire screen keeps flickering rapidly, not just a part of the screen.
Is it hardware or software related issue?? Any idea?

I had 5 videos that I could see in videos apps. But after your last OS update I can't find them on my iPhone. I can see them on the pc in itune when I connect the iPhone and go to videos directory.

When syncing, check the Movies/TV Shows Tab in the iPhone menu, and make sure ALL movies are synced (or select the ones you want to sync)

The report shows you don't have enough RAM required to run all of the apps you run at the same time. Yosemite takes way more RAM than what OS X used to take.
To solve the problem do either one of these:
restart your mac from time to time (every night for ex).
Use less apps at the same time.
upgrade to 8GB of RAM if your Mac allows it

Tried to update to newest version. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes and is stuck on a connection with itunes screen

I tried to update to newest version via pc. I got error because i didn't have this recovery program disc that was supposed to come with the purchase so it says, but it didn't and now my ipod touch 8gb won't connect with itunes anymore and is stuck on a screen displaying an itunes icon with a usb icon.

oke i'm not done with the whole thing, but i'm doing that right now. Most of the advice I've already read didn't work and at a certain point it said something about shutting down programs then restart. but i notice that there are some pretty important system things in that list and i don't want to mess up my pc :s i'm not a pc genius... and because i'm dutch and my pc-language is in dutch I often have trouble translating and well... i don't always understand the technical stuff in all the articles -_-

Screen flickering after 10.6.3 update

Hi,
Am using a Samsung 22" SyncMaster monitor with my 2009 Mac Mini connected via VGA with resolution 1680 x 1050 at 60Hz and after 10.6.3 update the screen flickers allowing me to see the desktop for around 1-2 seconds. Its really annoying but the only way to get rid of it is if i change the resolution to 1600 x 1000 also at 60 Hz but everything is blurry!
I checked the monitor manual and its recommended resolution is 1680 x 1050 at 60 Hz.
Does anyone else have this issue and is there a fix?!
Thank you.

Yes, I have the exact same problem.
I had this problem in 10.5.X as well. When I updated to Snow Leopard this went away. Now with 10.6.3 it is back again.
I worked around this problem in 10.5 by installing switchResX and playing around with the settings for the monitor... I haven't tried that in 10.6.3 yet.
I hope Apple fixes this soon. Being forced to use 3rd party software just to use the mac is unacceptable.

IPhone 5 constant crashing after iOS 8.0 Update and Factory Reset!!

So...thanks Apple! You completely bricked my phone with the most recent update.
Status since 9/17....
* Performed iOS 8.0 update via iTunes on my iPhone 5.
* No issues whatsoever until Saturday 9/20 around 5pm
* Phone starts reseting incessantly about every 5-10 minutes.
* Performed hard reset. No luck.
* Uninstalled apps since update. No luck.
* Noticed upon some crashes the screen goes totally janky (maybe graphics chip failure?)
* This morning decided to run full factory reset, hoping all would be fixed.
* Resetting issues start almost immediately and are continuing.
I'm not too excited about going into the Apple store given all the iOS 8.0 issues and fan-boys buying the newest 6 (holding out for 6s if possible).
Has anyone else out there had a similar experience?
Thank you in advance,

SO, the constant reboots have stopped, but now have significant charging issues.
* % charge doesn't increase on multiple different charging cables
* hard reset doesn't solve

After iOS 4.3 update I can't send mails on my iPhone 4

I installed the new 4.3 update three days ago and since then my emails have gone haywire. I had to reinstall my mail settings several times to get it to even connect and now I can receive mail fine but can no longer send them. The sending 'loading' symbol just hangs, and it announces that it cannot be authorised by the server. If I leave the phone on the email screen long enough the mail WILL eventually send after 3-4 hours, killing my battery in the process. It also refuses to verify my outgoing servers, taking an hour to attempt to do so in the process.
Also since the update, and I don't know how this is related, my regular Mac mail has also had issues- taking 5-10 minutes to send even the barest minimum of text emails.
I have tried POP and IMAP settings on both devices, configuring them manually and automatically, contacted my mail server providers who have no problem their hosts and checked my router to make sure it's not blocking anything. The only thing I can think of that has happened is this latest update.
Anyone else having this problem? I can't seem to find any other complaints similar to this...

Mine's much worst - can't send nor receive emails from Yahoo and Gmail. It simply won't connect. Gmail first gives an error about the SSL and to try again without it. But, it still won't connect. Yahoo on the other hand keeps on saying that the apple.imap server is not responding no matter what settings I change. It really does seem that there's something wrong on their end, however, it seems selective.
This is on top of the fact that all of my contacts were erased and the Personal Hotspot disappears intermittently.
By the way, I came from 4.2. I updated my wife's from 4.1 and her's is just peachy.

IOS 5.1 update and Music App Artist sort

Since I have updated my iPhone to iOS 5.1, I have noticed something in my music app. When I select to sort my library by Artist, it now includes every artist that is included on any compilations I have. This wasn't doing this before.
Whenever I had a song designated as a "compilation" it kept it listed/indexed separately and each individual artist did not show up in the Artist list...only those with complete/multiple albums did.
Now that it's changed, it's really garbled up browsing. I have a big compilation of 80's music on my phone and each and every one-hit wonder from that decade has an entry in the Artist list...takes me forever to find anything now.
I have scoured my settings and preferences but cannot find a way to make this like it was before. Did anyone else notice that this happened. Or am I just completely blind and missing a very obvious setting that might have gotten tripped to 'default' when the update was done.

No one else have this happen to them....?
If you run a restore on the iPhone, will that erase all of the apps as well? I'm thinking of doing that...

After IOS 8.3 update my music app shuts down everytime I try to open it!!!!!I

i Just updated my iphone 6 to the new IOS 8.3 software and now everytime I try to open my music app it shuts down inmediately!!! It never happend before the IOS UPDATE

The reset didn't work for me.
I was able to start Music and then really quickly tap to get out of the playlist I was on, and then I was able to play music normally from a different playlist. I just removed the offending playlist from my phone and now I'm re-syncing to see if the issue persists.

IPhone contacts won't display full screen picture after IOS 7.1 update.

How do I get pictures in Contacts to appear full screen when the phone rings instead of as a thumbnail?

Sorry, you can't, as it was a change made by Apple with iOS 7.1. There are no settings to change it.

I recently upgraded to iOS 6.0.1 and now apps crash. How do I fix it?

Safari and other apps crash frequently

I just got my iMac back from getting the hard drive replaced (2nd time in a month). Everything seemed to be going smoothly, but now I notice that Safari will crash quite frequently, sometimes everytime I try to open it, and sometimes it will run for a while. I have had some other programs do this to me since I noticed it, but I lost almost all info when it got fixed so I haven't had time to try them all, I only got it back about 4 days ago. Ready to pull my hair out, so any help would be much appreciated.

radiman,
Did you try the steps in Resolving Kernel Panics?
What happens when you try The Apple Hardware Test?
What is the S.M.A.R.T. status of your Hard Drive?
Since you appear not to have AppleCare, I would advise you to take it back to the service provider for resolution/warranty satisfaction regarding your third Hard Drive.

HT4623 I got the IOS 7.1 update and I don't like it. Is there any way that I can remove the update and return my software back to the way it was before I got the update?

Please, I really wnat to change my phone's sofeware back to IOS 7.0.6. I really don't like the IOS 7.1
PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE THE IOS 7.1 DRIVES ME INSANE!

Even though it wasn't me who started this thread i would like to say that i hate iOS 7.1 too
They're back! The IOS haters.
When you get a call it has some small icons of reminding and message and one white ugly "slide to answer" bar.*** seriously?
People complained about the green bar in IOS 7.0.3. You can't please everyone with everything. Deal with it and move on. Or you can just get a Droid phone and suffer through the bizarre interface changes.
A lot of people would really appreciate a release with the old interface back.
People complained about every interface change that Apple has tried. As I said earlier, you can't please everyone with everything. The interface is what it is, learn it, deal with it, or move on to something more to your liking. I think they still make flip phones.

IPad doesn't load, constantly restarts, and doesn't restore after iOS 8.1 update attempt.

Hello all.
I have an iPad Air 16gb with 4g Verizon Card. My iPad was working perfect until I attempted to update to iOS 8.1. It went through the normal update routine but when it restarted that's where all my problems began. It would go almost to where the iOS would kick on but I got the Apple blue screen of death for about 2 seconds and then it would restart. It's been going through these motions ever since never going into iOS. After doing some research, I finally found out how to emergency restore the iPad by turning it off and turning it back on holding the home button until the itunes/lightning plug symbols come on the screen. Plugged it into my computer, loaded itunes, and attempted to restore. I downloaded a fresh iOS 8.1 update and the iPad would turn off and turn back on with the update bar below the apple symbol. After the bar appeared, the bar remained unchanged so nothing even loaded. Then a few minutes later, I received "itunes could not connect to this iphone. an unknown error occured (0xE8000084)." and then got the "iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (4013)." Not really sure why it's saying iPhone either. I tried this three times getting the same result. I just tried restarting the computer and doing it again and yet I get the same result. Does anyone have any clue why this is happening and how to fix this? This is very frustrating because I'm in the military stationed in Italy but I'm about 3 hours away from the nearest Apple store and, not to imply anything, but they may not even speak English and having to take the train risking nothing getting solved. Any other ideas or help would be appreciated.

Hi rsa12985,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know that errors with iTunes errors and issues with your iPad not turning on can both be very frustrating and concerning. In this situation, with the unknown error 4013, I would suggest following the steps located in the attached article.
iOS: Restore errors 4005, 4013, and 4014 - Apple Support
